'INMC' .avi codec

Hi,

I have some files exported from a hotel CCTV system. They come in as .avi files and quicktime quotes an 'INMC' format.

Anybody know about this and how to find codec for it?

MacBook Pro, PowerBook, Mac OS X (10.5.8)

It's some obscure codec that only runs on Windows. You need to find someone with a Win machine that has the K-Lite codec pack installed and has the ability to convert it to one of the industry standard codecs that FCP works with.

PS. the INMC codec was actually invented by Hitler 😮

That's the one. I would be happy help you further but I have never actually owned a windows based computer.

i downloaded the 'full' codec pack from that website and installed it onto a vista machine.

quicktime opens and still asks to connect to the internet to find a codec

media player classic (included with the codec pack) opens and then crashes.

😟
